“My all-time Premier League diver is Luis Suarez,” Bent told TalkSport. “He used to infuriate me sometimes because he used to just win free-kicks for fun.

“Listen, he was a clever footballer, with really good feet, but he just had a knack of, as soon as he would go down, not only would he go down, he would go down in pain. Like ‘oh, my god he needs stretching off’ then he’d get back up again. He has to go down as my number one diver.”

Suarez came pretty close to helping Liverpool win the Premier League title when Brendan Rodgers was in charge of the Merseyside club.

Since then, a lot has happened, as Jurgen Klopp is now the man hoping to end Liverpool’s trophy drought of being champions of England once again.

They are sitting top of the Premier League table, and at the weekend, second-placed Manchester City will be looking to cut their six-point gap at the top of the table.
